  • Title: Evidence of a continuous endoplasmic reticulum in the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica.
    Author: Teixeira JE, Huston CD.
    Journal: Eukaryot Cell; 2008 Jul; 7(7):1222-6. PubMed ID: 18281599.
    Abstract:
    Entamoeba histolytica, the cause of amebiasis, is believed to have no continuous endoplasmic reticulum (ER), with ER functions occurring in vesicles. Here, using an ER-targeted green fluorescent protein fusion protein and fluorescence loss in photobleaching, we have unambiguously demonstrated the presence of a continuous ER compartment in living E. histolytica trophozoites.
